A blog for eaters

Archive for the month “May, 2013”

At the Barona Resort & Casino. My favorite station is the Mongolian Grill. This is actually pretty close to home, so I don’t know why we don’t go more often. Oh I know! It’s $26 per person, regardless of age. So my eight-year-old son who only eats half a plate… well $26. Decent food for a buffet, but a really poor value…

This is the little restaurant/bar inside the Embassy Suites LAX South in El Segundo. Shown here is the braised beef quesadilla from their appetizer menu. It wound up tasting much better than I was expecting. Lots of big tender chunks of braised beef. I’ll be getting this again next time I’m up.

Normally the McDouble is a tasty little sandwich and a good value at $1.19. Why pay over $4 for a Big Mac? Well today I should have. Or at least went to a different McD’s. this McDouble tasted like it was made about 4 hours prior and not even wrapped up. Dried out bun and everything. They couldn’t even assemble the burger in the proper fashion.
